The book is dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the birth of one of the greatest ballerinas of the 20th century, Maya Plisetskaya. Azariy Mikhailovich Plisetsky has created a memoir, an ode to his sister.

The renowned ballet dancer Azariy Plisetsky has drawn upon his extensive family archive. It contains photographs, postcards, letters, newspaper clippings, theater programs… Each item featured in the book sparks reminiscences about Maya's family, her creative life, and her character, as well as the people she encountered in her life. While telling stories about his sister, Azariy Mikhailovich simultaneously reflects on how audiences saw and perceived Maya, and the mystery of her rare genius.

The publication includes numerous previously unpublished materials from the Plisetsky archive, 35 QR codes with video clips from amateur family footage shot by Azari Plisetsky (he has been passionate about videography since his time living and working in Cuba), and performances by Maya Plisetskaya. An afterword was written by Nikolai Tsiskaridze.
